    Ty for the expanded version - this should be multiple videos. The length alone might be make people not click. Make one for each device. This content is GREAT!

      Yeah, maybe. When I finished recording it I felt like it was probably too long. But I kind of wanted to do it all in one video because creating and downloading the export is the same on all devices, so I would have ended up repeating myself a lot.

      I suffered (5-7)% chronic ear damage because of being exposed to an unhealthy amount of high-frequency sound present in this video, but it was worth it.

    After I've downloaded the zip to my external hard drive, when I try to extract the zip file I get an error that reads: Compressed zip folder errors: Windows cannot open the folder. The compressed zip folder is invalid.
    Any thoughts why?

    • @techtimewithtimmy
      @techtimewithtimmy  วันที่ผ่านมา

      That's strange, a zip folder from Google Drive shouldn't be invalid. Perhaps just try downloading it again, maybe even download it in multiple smaller zip files, to make it easier for the computer to extract.

    what if the download folder in pc is not enough, can we possibly download it direct to external drive

    • @techtimewithtimmy
      @techtimewithtimmy  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I cover that at 14:10 in this video.

      There are plenty of videos zipping around assuming you know more than you do. Some of us need a video exactly like this one.
